Technology is influencing who we are.
Social network, smartphones, augmentation technology just to name but a few – are changing our lives, our perceptions of humanity, and ultimately, our meaning and purpose in life.
While technology is offering us new tools to cope with these changes, psychology has been accumulating knowledge about human beings for 150 years. However, because the much data in psychology was unstructured, such as facial expressions and words, it was difficult to bring findings outside of the laboratory. With the advent of emotion recognition AI and smartphones, previously unweildy data is now available directly, and for the first time in history, we have the chance to incorporate psychological wisdom into society in the form of new services and products.
We are refining human insight through the use of such technologies and developing solutions that help people to live their lives in accordance with their values.
